-Perkins Coie (+ other firm that didn't back down). -Harvard (after momentary false start) -"Lower" fed judiciary. (Not Roger Taney "supreme" court.) -Local grand juries. -Govs like Pritzker and Newsom -WSJ and NYT, when sued. -Millions of protestors -Now Jimmy Kimmel. Our tapestry of resistance.

I'm ANTIFA. Americans are supposed to be.

So many coverups. Release the Epstein files. Release the Homan tapes. Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This is amazing.

The Apprentice

Back in the day, when U.S. military fought fascism—not aided it, not worked for it, not bowed to it.

My Dad was Antifa He fought fascists, too I am proud to join with him and all the courageous men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice defending against fascism

My great grandfather was Antifa. He fought fascists, too. I'm proud to come from a family of Antifa warriors.

Michael Eisner, who saved Disney from the doldrums, blasted Bob Iger for bending the knee.

I am proud to be born a Muslim. I am proud to be born in Somalia. I am proud to have become an American. None of you can change that no matter how much you rage tweet. Drink some water and touch grass.

A woman protesting outside the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, was brutally assaulted by goons who used mace and sting balls on her.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

This is the episode that got @jimmykimmel.com suspended. "He's on the fourth stage of grief: construction." 🤣 Please share and like this video. Subscribe to jimmy kimmel on YouTube. 💙 #BlueCrew #Kimmel #FDT #TACO

This man's compassion is truly inspirational and he is a remarkable individual. Such qualities are not often found in many people.

Alex Acosta is finally going to face a Congressional hearing tomorrow, but in a closed session. Read 👇 to learn about his role in that sweetheart deal for Epstein that protected the rapists and denied justice for the victims. He’s where the coverup of the largest pedophile ring in America started.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly. sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Swalwell: There’s going to be a Democratic majority in just over a year. To the FCC chairperson and anyone in involved in these dirty deals: get a lawyer and save your records because you’re going to be in this room answering questions

NVN Thursday at Substack: Jeremy Nathan Marks’ #newspoem “Robert, No Longer (Am I Young)” thenewversenews.substack.com/p/nvn-thursd... @literaryreport.bsky.social @literarybulletin.bsky.social

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group. There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi. He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

ABC didn’t cancel Kimmel for being cruel. They canceled him for being clear.

2. ABC Viewer Feedback Form ABC has a dedicated online form where viewers can share comments about programming. Link: ABC Viewer Feedback (abc.com/feedback) Choose “Programming Feedback” and then specify #JimmyKimmel Live! — you can explain you’re disappointed with the preemption decision.

Weird that the FCC Chair had no issue with Kilmeade wanting to euthanize homeless people.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

He didn't criticize Kirk. He criticized Vance, maga and Trump. That's the real offense.

ABC should have stood up for free speech and Jimmy Kimmel. Instead, it cowered in the face of censorship and fascism.

Kimmel. Colbert. Suits against the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and 60 Minutes. Extorting settlements from CBS, ABC, and others. Blocking the AP's access to the White House. 🧵

Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air. He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congress—everyone. Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.

Congrats to Jimmy Kimmel for never bending the knee.
